Why Choose the ASICS GEL-Nimbus?
The ASICS GEL-Nimbus is one of ASICS' flagship long-distance running shoes, built for neutral runners who want plush cushioning over many miles.
Its history traces back to 1999, when ASICS introduced the first Nimbus as a premium comfort sneaker with generous GEL cushioning in the heel to absorb impact, a breathable upper, and a ride that emphasised softness and comfort. Newer versions incorporate technologies like FlyteFoam™ and FlyteFoam Propel in the midsole for lightweight bounce, upgraded mesh or knitted uppers for enhanced breathability and fit, and more advanced GEL units for more balanced impact protection.
Nimbus models tend to have a smooth, sleek profile with a well-padded heel counter, accentuated cushioning geometry in the sole, and a midsole/outsole combination that balances grip, durability, and comfort over varied surfaces.
